The first wiring substrate 100 and the second wiring substrate 110 are bonded in a film on film (FOF) region R12.

As illustrated in FIG. 1, the second wiring substrate 110 is a flexible printed circuit (FPC) board.

The glass substrate 71 serves as a first insulating substrate. The first insulating film 72 is provided on the glass substrate 71. The first metal film 73 is provided on the first insulating film 72. The interlayer insulating film 74 is provided on the first insulating film 72 and covers the first metal film 73. The panel terminal 62 serves as a second metal film provided on the interlayer insulating film 74. The first translucent conductive film 75 is provided on the interlayer insulating film 74 and covers around the panel terminal 62. The second insulating film 76 is provided on the interlayer insulating film 74 and covers around the panel terminal 62 and the first translucent conductive film 75.

The center portion of the panel terminal 62 is in contact with the second translucent conductive film 77.

The first insulating substrate is not limited to a glass substrate and may be a flexible resin substrate. The first insulating film 72 is made of an inorganic film, such as a silicon oxide film and a silicon nitride film. The first insulating film 72, for example, has a multilayered structure in which a silicon oxide film and a silicon nitride film are stacked in this order from the glass substrate 71 side. The first metal film 73 is made of a material including molybdenum. The interlayer insulating film 74 is made of an inorganic film, such as a silicon oxide film and a silicon nitride film. The interlayer insulating film 74, for example, has a multilayered structure in which a silicon oxide film, a silicon nitride film, and a silicon oxide film are stacked in this order from the glass substrate 71 side.

The panel terminals 62 are provided in the same layer as that of signal lines (not illustrated) and sources and drains (not illustrated) of pixel transistors provided in the display region. The panel terminals 62 are made of the same material as that of the signal lines, the sources, and the drains. The panel terminals 62 and the signal lines and the sources and the drains of the pixel transistors provided in the display region, for example, are made of the second metal film including titanium and aluminum, for example. The panel terminals 62 and the signal lines and the sources and the drains of the pixel transistors provided in the display region have a multilayered structure in which titanium, aluminum, and titanium are stacked in this order from the film base material 1 side, for example. Scanning lines (not illustrated) provided in the display region are made of the same material as that of the first metal film.

The first translucent conductive film 75 is provided in the same layer as that of a common electrode (not illustrated) provided in the display region and made of the same material as that of the common electrode. The first translucent conductive film 75 is made of an indium tin oxide (hereinafter, referred to as ITO) film, for example.

The second insulating film 76 is provided in the same layer as that of a capacitance insulating film provided in the display region and made of the same material as that of the capacitance insulating film. The second insulating film 76 is made of an inorganic film, such as a silicon nitride film.

The second translucent conductive film 77 is provided in the same layer as that of pixel electrodes (not illustrated) provided in the display region and made of the same material as that of the pixel electrodes. The second translucent conductive film 77 is made of an ITO film, for example. Alternatively, the pixel electrodes may be provided in the same layer as that of the first translucent conductive film, and the common electrodes may be provided in the same layer as that of the second translucent conductive film.

As illustrated in FIG. 4, the panel terminal 62 the center portion of which is covered with the second translucent conductive film 77 is coupled to the first FOG terminal 11 of the first wiring substrate 100 via conductive particles 81 included in an anisotropic conductive film (hereinafter, referred to as an ACF) 80. The long side of the first FOG terminal 11 inclines with respect to the second direction (Y-axis direction).

As illustrated in FIG. 3, in the first wiring substrate 100, a first center line CL1 passes through the center of the array of the first FOG terminals 11 (FOG terminal group) in the X-axis direction and is parallel to the Y-axis direction. The first center line CL1 passes between the first FOG terminal 11 inclining to the right with respect to the Y-axis direction and the first FOG terminal 11 inclining to the left with respect to the Y-axis direction. In the first wiring substrate 100, a first region R1 includes the first center line CL1, second regions R2 are farther away from the first center line CL1 than the first region R1, and third regions R3 are farther away from the first center line CL1 than the second regions R2. The first FOG terminals 11 are disposed in the first region R1 and the second regions R2, for example. The alignment mark 13 is disposed in each third region R3.

The first FOG terminals 11 extend inclining with respect to the Y-axis direction. The inclination of the first FOG terminal 11 with respect to the Y-axis direction is greater at a position farther away from the first center line CL1 (that is, a position closer to an edge 1 e of the film base material 1) than a position closer to the first center line CL1. The inclination of the first FOG terminal 11 with respect to the Y-axis direction is greater in the second regions R2 than in the first region R1, for example. When θ1 is the inclination of the first FOG terminal 11 with respect to the Y-axis direction in the first region R1, and θ2 is the inclination of the first FOG terminal 11 with respect to the Y-axis direction in the second regions R2, θ1<θ2 is satisfied. The inclination of the first FOG terminals 11 with respect to the Y-axis direction according to the present embodiment continuously increases closer to the edge 1 e of the film base material 1 (that is, farther away from the first center line CL1).

FIG. 5 is a plan view of an exemplary configuration of the display panel according to the embodiment. As illustrated in FIG. 5, in the projection 61 of the TFT substrate 60, a second center line CL2 passes through the center of the array of the panel terminals 62 (panel terminal group) in the X-axis direction and is parallel to the Y-axis direction. In the projection 61 of the TFT substrate 60, a fourth region R4 includes the second center line CL2, fifth regions R5 are farther away from the second center line CL2 than the fourth region R4, and sixth regions R6 are farther away from the second center line CL2 than the fifth regions R5. The panel terminals 62 are provided in the fourth region R4 and the fifth regions R5, for example. The alignment marks 65 are disposed in the sixth regions R6.

FIG. 6 is a sectional view of the first region of the first wiring substrate and the fourth region of the TFT substrate according to the embodiment. FIG. 7 is a sectional view of the second region of the first wiring substrate and the fifth region of the TFT substrate according to the embodiment. As illustrated in FIG. 6, the first FOG terminals 11 positioned in the first region R1 of the first wiring substrate 100 are bonded to the respective panel terminals 62 positioned in the fourth region R4 of the TFT substrate 60. As illustrated in FIG. 7, the first FOG terminals 11 positioned in the second regions R2 of the first wiring substrate 100 are bonded to the respective panel terminals 62 positioned in the fifth regions R5 of the TFT substrate 60.

The pitch between the first FOG terminals 11 arranged in the X-axis direction is greater in the second regions R2 than in the first region R1. As illustrated in FIGS. 5 to 7, for example, when Pa is the pitch between the first FOG terminals 11 in the first region R1 (hereinafter, referred to as a center pitch or an inner pitch), and Pb is the pitch between the first FOG terminals 11 in the second regions R2 (hereinafter, referred to as an outer pitch), Pa<Pb is satisfied. The outer pitch Pb is 1.1 to 2 times the length of the center pitch Pa. The pitch between the first FOG terminals 11 according to the present embodiment continuously increases closer to the edge 1 e of the film base material 1. In the present specification, the pitch indicates the gap between reference positions of the respective terminals adjacent to each other. The reference position is the center of each terminal in the width direction (e.g., the X-axis direction), for example.

The width of the first FOG terminal 11 in the first region R1 is equal to that in the second regions R2. As illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7, for example, when Lc1 is the width of the first FOG terminal 11 in the first region R1, and Lc2 is the width of the first FOG terminal 11 in the second regions R2, Lc1=Lc2 is satisfied. The width of the first FOG terminal 11 according to the present embodiment is constant regardless of the distance from the first center line CL1. In the present specification, being equal simply needs to be approximately equal, that is, substantially equal, and a slight difference generated in manufacturing can be allowed. Being constant simply needs to be approximately constant, that is, substantially constant, and a slight difference generated in manufacturing can be allowed.

The space between the first FOG terminals 11 arranged adjacent to each other in the X-axis direction is greater in the second regions R2 than in the first region R1. As illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7, for example, when Sc1 is the space between the first FOG terminals 11 in the first region R1, and Sc2 is the space between the first FOG terminals 11 in the second regions R2, Sc1<Sc2 is satisfied. The space between the first FOG terminals 11 according to the present embodiment continuously increases closer to the edge 1 e of the film base material 1.

The pitch between the panel terminals 62 arranged adjacent to each other in the X-axis direction is greater in the fifth regions R5 than in the fourth region R4. The pitch between the panel terminals 62 in the fourth region R4, for example, is equal to the inner pitch Pa of the first FOG terminals 11. The pitch between the panel terminals 62 in each fifth region R5 is equal to the outer pitch Pb of the first FOG terminals 11. The pitch between the panel terminals 62 according to the present embodiment continuously increases closer to an edge 61 e (refer to FIG. 5) of the projection 61.

The space between the panel terminals 62 arranged adjacent to each other in the X-axis direction in the fourth region R4 is equal to that in the fifth regions R5. As illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7, for example, when Sp1 is the space between the panel terminals 62 in the fourth region R4, and Sp2 is the space between the panel terminals 62 in the fifth regions R5, Sp1=Sp2 is satisfied. The space between the panel terminals 62 according to the present embodiment is constant regardless of the distance from the second center line CL2.

The width of the panel terminal 62 is greater in the fifth regions R5 than in the fourth region R4. When Lp1 is the width of the panel terminal 62 in the fourth region R4, and Lp2 is the width of the panel terminal 62 in the fifth regions R5, Lp1<Lp2 is satisfied. The width of the panel terminals 62 according to the present embodiment continuously increases closer to the edge 61 e (refer to FIG. 5) of the projection 61 (that is, farther away from the second center line CL2).

The difference between the width of the first FOG terminal 11 in the first region R1 and the width of the panel terminal 62 in the fourth region R4 is expressed by Lp1−Lc1. The difference between the width of the first FOG terminal 11 in the second regions R2 and the width of the panel terminal 62 in the fifth regions R5 is expressed by Lp2−Lc2. Because Lp2>Lp1 and Lc2=Lc1 are satisfied, (Lp2−Lc2)>(Lp1−Lc1) is satisfied. In alignment of the first FOG terminals 11 with respect to the panel terminals 62, this structure can make a margin in each second region R2 greater than that in the first region R1.

As illustrated in FIG. 5, the first surface 61 a of the projection 61 of the TFT substrate 60 is provided with the alignment marks 65 and the check marks 66 and 67. In bonding the TFT substrate 60 to the first wiring substrate 100, the alignment marks 65 are used for alignment thereof. The check marks 66 are used to check the position to which the ACF 80 is bonded. The check marks 67 are used to check a positional deviation between the panel terminals 62 of the TFT substrate 60 and the first FOG terminals 11 of the first wiring substrate 100.

The alignment marks 65 are provided on both sides (e.g., the sixth regions R6) of the panel terminal group including the panel terminals 62 so as to sandwich the panel terminal group in planar view. The alignment marks 65 and the check marks 66, for example, are provided in the sixth regions R6. The alignment marks 65 and the check marks 66 are disposed in line symmetry with respect to the second center line CL2 in planar view. The check marks 67 are provided in the fifth regions R5. The check marks 67, for example, are provided adjacent to the respective panel terminals 62. First marks 67A (which will be described later) of the check marks 67 may be provided also in the fourth region R4.

The alignment mark 65 includes alignment marks 65A, 65B, and 65C, for example. The alignment mark 65A is used to cause a manufacturing apparatus (not illustrated) to recognize a conveyed set position of the TFT substrate 60. The alignment mark 65A is an alignment mark used for an automatic mechanism in which the image of the alignment mark is automatically recognized by the manufacturing apparatus in alignment of the manufacturing apparatus and the conveyed set. The alignment mark 65B is an alignment mark used for an automatic mechanism in which the image of the alignment mark is automatically recognized by the manufacturing apparatus (not illustrated) when the manufacturing apparatus aligns the TFT substrate 60 and the first wiring substrate 100. The alignment mark 65C is an alignment mark used for a manual mechanism in which the image of the alignment mark is recognized by an operator when the operator aligns the TFT substrate 60 and the first wiring substrate 100 by a manual operation.

FIG. 8 is a plan view illustrating a state where the centers of the alignment marks for the automatic mechanism coincide. As illustrated in FIG. 8, the alignment mark 65B includes four metal films 651 and a light transmissive region 652. The shape in planar view (hereinafter, referred to as the planar shape) of the metal film 651 is a rectangle. The planar shape of the light transmissive region 652 is defined by the four metal films 651. The metal films 651 are made of the same kind of metal as that of the panel terminals 62. The metal films 651 are respectively disposed at four corners of a virtual region (not illustrated) having a rectangular planar shape. As a result, the planar shape of the light transmissive region 652 is a cross.

The alignment mark 13 includes a first metal film 131 and a second metal film 132. The first metal film 131 and the second metal film 132 are made of the same kind of metal as that of the first FOG terminals 11, for example. The planar shape of the first metal film 131 is a cross. The planar shape of the second metal film 132 is a rectangle.

FIG. 8 illustrates a case where the first metal film 131 overlaps the light transmissive region 652, and the second metal film 132 hides behind the metal film 651 when the first wiring substrate 100 is viewed from the TFT substrate 60 side. In this case, the center of the alignment mark 13 coincides with the center of the alignment mark 65B. When the center of the alignment mark 13 coincides with the center of the alignment mark 65B on both sides of the array of the first FOG terminals 11, the first wiring substrate 100 is aligned with the projection 61. When the panel terminals 62 are coupled to the first FOG terminals 11, the alignment marks 13 and 65B are in the state illustrated in FIG. 8.

The state where the first wiring substrate 100 is aligned with the projection 61 according to the present embodiment is not limited to the state illustrated in FIG. 8. The center of the alignment mark 13 may be shifted with respect to the center of the alignment mark 65B.

FIG. 9 is a plan view illustrating position shift of the alignment marks. As illustrated in FIG. 9, the first wiring substrate 100 may be aligned with the projection 61 when a center 65Bc of the alignment mark 65B and a center 131 c of the first metal film 131 of the alignment mark 13 are aligned in the Y-axis direction, and the distance between the centers 65Bc and 131 c is a predetermined value (shift value). In this case, when the panel terminals 62 are coupled to the first FOG terminals 11, the alignment marks 13 and 65B are in the state illustrated in FIG. 9.

FIG. 10 is a plan view illustrating a state where the centers of the alignment marks for the manual mechanism coincide. When the panel terminals 62 are coupled to the first FOG terminals 11, the alignment marks 14 and 65C are in the state illustrated in FIG. 10. As illustrated in FIG. 10, the alignment mark 65C includes four metal films 653 and a light transmissive region 654. The planar shape of the metal film 653 is a rectangle. The planar shape of the light transmissive region 654 is defined by the four metal films 653. The metal films 653 are made of the same kind of metal as that of the panel terminals 62. The metal films 653 are respectively disposed at four corners of a virtual region (not illustrated) having a rectangular planar shape. As a result, the planar shape of the light transmissive region 654 is a cross. The light transmissive region 654 has a linear part 654 a and a linear part 654 b intersecting the linear part 654 a in planar view. The linear part 654 a is parallel to the X-axis direction. The linear part 654 b inclines with respect to the Y-axis direction. The inclination of the linear part 654 b with respect to the Y-axis direction is an angle θ3. The angle θ3 is greater than the angles θ1 and θ2. In other words, θ1<θ2<θ3 is satisfied.

The planar shape of the alignment mark 14 is a cross. The alignment mark 14, for example, has a linear part 141 and a linear part 142 intersecting the linear part 141 in planar view. The linear part 141 is parallel to the X-axis direction. The linear part 142 inclines with respect to the Y-axis direction. The inclination of the linear part 142 with respect to the Y-axis direction is the angle θ3. The alignment mark 14 is made of a metal of the same type as that of the first FOG terminals 11.

FIG. 10 illustrates a case where the alignment mark 14 overlaps the light transmissive region 654 when the first wiring substrate 100 is viewed from the TFT substrate 60 side. In this case, the center of the alignment mark 14 coincides with the center of the alignment mark 65C. If the center of the alignment mark 14 coincides with the center of the alignment mark 65C on both sides of the terminal array of the first FOG terminals 11, the first wiring substrate 100 is aligned with the projection 61.

FIG. 11 is a diagram of an exemplary structure of a portion overlapping the outer cut line L1 in planar view and a portion near the overlapping portion in the alignment mark for the manual mechanism. As illustrated in FIG. 11, in the alignment mark 14, the portion overlapping the outer cut line L1 in planar view and the portion near the overlapping portion have the width gradually varying depending on the distance from the outer cut line L1. The linear part 142 of the alignment mark 14, for example, overlaps the outer cut line L1 in planar view. The linear part 142 has a first portion A1, a second portion A2, and a third portion A3 positioned on the first wiring substrate 100 inside the outer cut line L1. The linear part 142 also has a first portion B1, a second portion B2, and a third portion B3 positioned on the first wiring substrate 100 outside the outer cut line L1.

The first portions A1 and B1 are closest to the outer cut line L1 and overlap the outer cut line L1 in planar view. The third portions A3 and B3 are farther away from the outer cut line L1. The second portion A2 is positioned between the first portion A1 and the third portion A3, and the second portion B2 is positioned between the first portion B1 and the third portion B3. When W1 is the width of the first portions A1 and B1, W2 is the width of the second portions A2 and B2, and W3 is the width of the third portions A3 and B3, W1<W2<W3 is satisfied. The width W2 is greater than the width W1, and the width W3 is greater than the width W2. Consequently, the manufacturing apparatus can determine whether the film base material 1 is accurately die-cut along the outer cut line L1 by measuring the width of the portion of the linear part 142 positioned at the end of the first wiring substrate 100.

FIG. 12 is a plan view of an exemplary structure of the positional deviation check mark. As illustrated in FIG. 12, the positional deviation check mark 67 includes first marks 67A and second marks 67B to check positional deviation of the first FOG terminals 11 with respect to the panel terminals 62. The first marks 67A are used to check positional deviation in the X-axis direction, and the second marks 67B are used to check positional deviation in the Y-axis direction.

The first marks 67A, for example, are respectively provided to a pair of panel terminals 62 arranged adjacent to each other in the X-axis direction. One of the first marks 67A is provided on a side of one panel terminal 62 of the adjacent panel terminals 62, the side facing the other panel terminal 62. The other of the first marks 67A is provided on a side of the other panel terminal 62, the side facing the one panel terminal 62. In the present embodiment, when the first wiring substrate 100 is properly aligned with the projection 61, the first FOG terminal 11 is disposed between the pair of first marks 67A, and spaces are secured between the first marks 67A and the first FOG terminal 11 as illustrated in FIG. 12. Consequently, the manufacturing apparatus can determine whether the positional deviation in the X-axis direction falls within an allowable range by appearance inspection of the positional relation between the first marks 67A and the first FOG terminal 11.

The second marks 67B are provided on a first side of one panel terminal 62. A pair of second marks 67B, for example, is provided on the first side of the panel terminal 62. The second marks 67B are disposed away from each other. The first FOG terminal 11 facing, in the Z-axis direction, the panel terminal 62 having the second marks 67B has a protrusion 11A protruding in the X-axis direction from a side of the first FOG terminal 11. In the present embodiment, when the first wiring substrate 100 is properly aligned with the projection 61, the protrusion 11A is disposed between the pair of second marks 67B, and spaces are secured between the second marks 67B and the protrusion 11A, as illustrated in FIG. 12. Consequently, the manufacturing apparatus can determine whether the positional deviation in the Y-axis direction falls within an allowable range by appearance inspection of the positional relation between the second marks 67B and the protrusion 11A.

Mounting the first wiring substrate 100 on the display panel 150 is performed as follows. The manufacturing apparatus automatically recognizes the alignment marks 13 and 65B for the automatic mechanism, automatically aligns the display panel 150 with the first wiring substrate 100, and bonds the first FOG terminals 11 to the panel terminals 62 by applying heat and pressure. To check the quality after compression bonding, the manufacturing apparatus automatically recognizes the positional deviation check marks 67 and checks whether positional deviation is present. Based on the check results, the manufacturing apparatus determines the quality of the product.

When the automatic mechanism is not available, or when a product having an inferior compression boding quality is repaired, the operator aligns the display panel 150 with the first wiring substrate 100 by a manual operation. The operator, for example, visually recognizes the alignment marks 14 and 65C for the manual mechanism and aligns the display panel 150 with the first wiring substrate 100 such that the centers of the alignment marks 14 and 65C overlap with each other in planar view. The operator views the positional deviation check marks 67 and checks whether positional deviation is present. Consequently, even if it is difficult to perform automatic alignment by the manufacturing apparatus, the operator can align the display panel 150 with the first wiring substrate 100 by a manual operation.

As described above, the first wiring substrate 100 according to the embodiment includes a film-like base material (e.g., the film base material 1) and a plurality of first substrate terminals (e.g., the first FOG terminals 11) provided on the first surface 1 a of the film base material 1. The first FOG terminals 11 are arranged in the X-axis direction.

A first terminal included in the first FOG terminals 11 is positioned closer to the edge 1 e (FIG. 3) of the film base material 1 in the X-axis direction than a second terminal included in the first FOG terminals 11. The first terminal corresponds to one terminal included in the first FOG terminals 11 and positioned in the second region R2 (refer to FIGS. 3 and 7), for example. The second terminal corresponds to one terminal included in the first FOG terminals 11 and positioned in the first region R1 (refer to FIGS. 3 and 6). The inclination with respect to the Y-axis direction is greater in the first terminal than in the second terminal. A first pitch (e.g., the pitch Pb) between the first terminal and a third terminal disposed adjacent to the first terminal in the X-axis direction is greater than a second pitch (e.g., the pitch Pa) between the second terminal and a fourth terminal disposed adjacent to the second terminal in the X-axis direction.

This structure can make a margin in alignment of the first FOG terminals 11 with the panel terminals 62 greater. When the first wiring substrate 100 is relatively moved with respect to the display panel 150 in the Y-axis direction in mounting the first wiring substrate 100 on the display panel 150, for example, the first FOG terminals 11 are moved with respect to the panel terminals 62. This allows the positions of the first FOG terminals 11 with respect to the panel terminals 62 to be corrected. The inclination with respect to the Y-axis direction is greater in the first terminal farther away from the first center line CL than in the second terminal closer to the first center line CL1. With this structure, the first terminal has a greater margin in alignment than the second terminal.

When the manufacturing apparatus bonds (e.g., bonds by applying heat and pressure) terminals on a wiring substrate to terminals on a display panel, heat is applied to the wiring substrate. As a result, the wiring substrate expands with heat, whereby dimensional variation may possibly occur in the width of the terminals on the wiring substrate and spaces between the terminals thereon, for example. If the wiring substrate is a film substrate, and the display panel is a glass panel, dimensional variation also occurs between the wiring substrate and the display panel because of the difference in the coefficient of thermal expansion. The dimensional variation tends to increase closer to the edge of the wiring substrate. The dimensional variation leads to mounting deviation of the wiring substrate with respect to the display panel and may possibly cause mounting failure. As the display panel is designed to have higher resolution, the width of the terminals on the wiring substrate and the spaces between the terminals tend to be finer. As a result, the margin in alignment of the wiring substrate with the display panel is reduced, thereby increasing the difficulty in mounting.

By contrast, the display device and the wiring substrate of the present embodiment allow the margin in the alignment of the first FOG terminals 11 with the panel terminals 62 to be greater. Particularly at the edge 1 e of the film base material 1, the margin in the alignment of the first FOG terminals 11 is greater. Thus, if dimensional variation occurs in the width of the first FOG terminals 11 and the spaces between the first FOG terminals 11, for example, the influence of the dimensional variation can be accommodated by relatively moving the first wiring substrate 100 with respect to the display panel 150 in the Y-axis direction. Consequently, the first wiring substrate 100 is less likely to cause mounting deviation with respect to the display panel 150.

The first wiring substrate 100 is also less likely to cause mounting deviation with respect to display panels having higher resolution and can improve the quality of mounting. The first wiring substrate 100 is also less likely to cause mounting deviation with respect to other wiring substrates having higher resolution.

In the present embodiment, the width Lc2 of the first terminal is equal to the width Lc1 of the second terminal. The pitch (e.g., the pitches Pa and Pb) between the first FOG terminals 11 continuously increases closer to the edge 1 e of the film base material 1 in the X-axis direction.

The inclination (e.g., the angles θ1 and θ2) of the first FOG terminals 11 with respect to the Y-axis direction continuously increases closer to the edge 1 e of the film base material 1 in the X-axis direction.

The first wiring substrate 100 includes the alignment marks (e.g., the alignment mark 14) provided on the first surface 1 a of the film base material 1. The alignment mark 14 is positioned closer to the edge 1 e of the film base material 1 in the X-axis direction than the first FOG terminals 11. The alignment mark 14 has the linear part 142 having the inclination with respect to the Y-axis direction greater than that of the first FOG terminals 11.

The first wiring substrate 100 includes a plurality of second substrate terminals (e.g., the first FOF terminals 12) provided on the first surface 1 a of the film base material 1. The first FOF terminals 12 and the first FOG terminals 11 are placed on opposite sides of the region provided with the element (e.g., the IC chip 5) on the film base material 1.

The first wiring substrate 100 includes the IC chip 5 mounted on the first surface 1 a of the film base material 1. The first FOG terminals 11 and the first FOF terminals 12 are coupled to the IC chip 5.

The display device 200 according to the embodiment includes the first wiring substrate 100 and the display panel 150 to which the first wiring substrate 100 is attached. The display panel 150 includes a plurality of panel terminals 62 coupled to a plurality of first FOG terminals 11. The long side of the panel terminal 62 inclines with respect to the second direction. The panel terminals 62 include a fifth terminal that is the panel terminal 62 coupled to the first terminal, and a sixth terminal that is the panel terminal 62 coupled to the second terminal. The fifth terminal corresponds to one terminal included in the panel terminals 62 and positioned in the fifth region R5 (refer to FIGS. 5 and 7), for example. The sixth terminal corresponds to one terminal included in the panel terminals 62 and positioned in the fourth region R4 (refer to FIGS. 5 and 6). The width Lp2 of the fifth terminal is greater than the width Lp1 of the sixth terminal.

A space (gap) between the fifth terminal and a seventh terminal disposed adjacent to the fifth terminal in the X-axis direction of the panel terminals 62 is defined as a third gap (e.g., the space Sp2). A space (gap) between the sixth terminal and an eighth terminal disposed adjacent to the sixth terminal in the X-axis direction of the panel terminals 62 is defined as a fourth gap (e.g., the space Sp1). The spaces Sp1 and Sp2 are equal in width.

The aspect of the display device 200 according to the embodiment may also be described as follows. The display device 200 includes the display panel 150 and the wiring substrate (e.g., the first wiring substrate 100). The display panel 150 includes a plurality of panel terminals 62 arranged in the first direction (e.g., the X-axis direction). The wiring substrate includes a plurality of first substrate terminals (e.g., the first FOG terminals 11) arranged in the X-axis direction and coupled to the panel terminals 62. The panel terminals 62 have a first region (e.g., the fourth region R4) and second regions (e.g., the fifth regions R5) sandwiching the first region. The first FOG terminals 11 have a third region (e.g., the first region R1) and fourth regions (e.g., the second regions R2) sandwiching the third region. In the fourth region R4 and each fifth region R5, the gap between adjacent panel terminals 62 of the panel terminals 62 is substantially constant. The panel terminals 62 have a first width (e.g., the width Lp1) in the fourth region R4 and have a second width (e.g., the width Lp2) different from the first width in each fifth region R5. In the first region R1 and each second region R2, the width of the first FOG terminals 11 is substantially constant. The first FOG terminals 11 have a first gap (e.g., the space Sc1) between two first FOG terminals 11 disposed adjacent to each other in the first region R1 and have a second gap (e.g., the space Sc2) different from the first gap between two first FOG terminals 11 disposed adjacent to each other in each second region R2.

The width Lp2 is greater than the width Lp1, and the space Sc2 is greater than the space Sc1.

The first wiring substrate 100 is provided with the IC chip 5 that drives the display panel 150. The first FOG terminals 11 in the first region R1 and the second regions R2 are coupled to the IC chip 5.

In the fifth regions R5, the panel terminals 62 each have an inclination with respect to the second direction, that is, an inclination diagonally intersecting the X-axis direction in planar view (e.g., an inclination along a direction diagonally intersecting both of the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction in planar view). In the second regions R2, the first FOG terminals 11 each have an inclination with respect to the second direction. The panel terminals 62 may incline with respect to the second direction also in the fourth region R4. As illustrated in FIG. 5, the inclination of the panel terminals 62 with respect to the second direction increases from the center position (second center line CL2) of the display panel 150 in the first direction to the edge of the display panel 150 and with distance from the center position (second center line CL2) in the first direction.

One of two alignment marks 65B sandwiching the panel terminals 62 in the X-axis direction is an example of a first alignment mark, and the other thereof is an example of a second alignment mark. One of two alignment marks 65C sandwiching the first alignment mark and the second alignment mark in the X-axis direction is an example of a third alignment mark, and the other thereof is an example of a fourth alignment mark.

One of two alignment marks 13 sandwiching the first FOG terminals 11 in the X-axis direction is an example of a fifth alignment mark, and the other thereof is an example of a sixth alignment mark. One of two alignment marks 14 sandwiching the fifth alignment mark and the sixth alignment mark in the X-axis direction is an example of a seventh alignment mark, and the other thereof is an example of an eighth alignment mark.

Modifications

As illustrated in FIG. 3, the first FOF terminals 12 of the first wiring substrate 100 according to the above embodiment above extend from the inside of the first wiring substrate 100 to the outside thereof beyond the outer cut line L1. The aspect of the first wiring substrate according to the present embodiment is not limited thereto.

FIG. 13 is a plan view of the first wiring substrate according to a modification of the embodiment. As illustrated in FIG. 13, in a first wiring substrate 100A according to the modification of the embodiment, the first FOF terminals 12 do not extend beyond the outer cut line L1. The first FOF terminals 12 are positioned on the first wiring substrate 100A inside the outer cut line L1. The ends of the first FOF terminals 12 are separated from an edge if of the film base material 1 in the Y-axis direction. In other words, a space S1 is formed between the ends of the first FOF terminals 12 and the edge if of the film base material 1 in the Y-axis direction. Also with this structure, the first FOF terminals 12 of the first wiring substrate 100A can be bonded to the respective terminals of the second wiring substrate 110 in the FOF region R12 (refer to FIGS. 1 and 2).

As illustrated in FIG. 14, in the state where the first wiring substrate 100 and the second wiring substrate 110 are yet to be bonded, Le1 is the distance between an end 12A of the first FOF terminal 12 and an end of the ACF 80 in the Y-axis direction, Le2 is the distance between the end of the ACF 80 and an end of the film base material 1 in the Y-axis direction, and Le3 is the length in the Y-axis direction of a part in which the solder resist 7 and the ACF 80 overlap with each other.

In the state where the first wiring substrate 100 and the second wiring substrate 110 are yet to be bonded, Le11 is the distance between an end of the solder resist 7 and an end 112A of the second FOF terminal 112 in the Y-axis direction, Le12 is the length in the Y-axis direction of a part in which the solder resist 7 and the film base material 111 overlap with each other, and Le13 is the length in the Y-axis direction of a part in which the ACF 80 and the cover film 114 overlap with each other. The distance Le11 is 0 to 0.5 mm, the distance Le12 is 0 to 0.5 mm, and the length Le13 is 0.2 to 0.7 mm. The end 112A of the second FOF terminal 112 according to the present embodiment is preferably positioned in the inner region of the film base material 111 to prevent corrosion. The distance between the end of the film base material 111 and the end 112A of the second FOF terminal 112 (Le11+Le12) is preferably greater than 0 mm.

As illustrated in FIG. 15, in the state where the first wiring substrate 100 and the second wiring substrate 110 are bonded, Le5 is the length in the Y-axis direction of a part in which the solder resist 7 and the ACF 80 overlap with each other, and Le6 is the distance between the end 12A of the first FOF terminal 12 and the end of the ACF 80 in the Y-axis direction. The length Le5 is 0.2 to 0.9 mm, and the distance Le6 is 0.2 to 1.4 mm. In the state where the first wiring substrate 100 and the second wiring substrate 110 are bonded, Le15 is the distance between the end 112A of the second FOF terminal 112 and the end of the ACF 80 in the Y-axis direction, and Le16 is the length in the Y-axis direction of a part in which the cover film 114 and the ACF 80 overlap with each other. The distance Le15 is 0.2 to 1.4 mm, and the length Le16 is 0.2 to 1.4 mm.

As described above, when the first wiring substrate 100 and the second wiring substrate 110 are bonded, the ends 12A of the first FOF terminals 12 and the ends 112A of the second FOF terminals 112 are covered with the ACF 80. The ends 12A and 112A are sealed with the ACF 80 and are not exposed to the air. As a result, the first FOF terminals 12 and the second FOF terminals 112 are prevented from being corroded by water condensation, for example.

While exemplary embodiments according to the present invention have been described, the embodiments are not intended to limit the invention. For example, the first FOF terminals 12 and the second FOF terminals 112 each may have an inclination with respect to the second direction (e.g., the Y-axis direction) as in the case of the first FOG terminals 11 and the panel terminals 62. The contents disclosed in the embodiments are given as an example only, and various changes may be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Appropriate changes made without departing from the spirit of the present invention naturally fall within the technical scope of the invention.
